Installation process guide

What is the process for double glazed window installation?

The double glazed window installation process usually starts with a survey, measurement, specification, quote, ordering, fitting, finishing and aftercare. Good installation also checks whether repair is still a sensible option before full replacement is chosen.

Survey and specification first

Measurements, opening styles, glass, hardware, ventilation, trims and access all need confirming before ordering. That is where installation quality starts.

Fitting and finishing

The installation should leave the opening secure, weathered, neat and usable. Finishing details matter because they affect both performance and how the home looks afterwards.

Questions customers ask

  • Do I need full replacement or repair?

    If the frame is sound and the fault is a sealed unit, hinge, lock, handle or seal, repair may be enough. Full replacement is sensible when the frame, security or long-term performance has failed.

  • What should I send for an installation quote?

    Send the property location, photos, number of windows or doors, the reason for replacement and any preferred style or glass requirements.

  • Can A&E advise on repair before replacement?

    Yes. The business takes a repair-first approach and can explain when replacement is the better long-term answer.

Tell us what needs fixing or replacing.

Include the fault, location, photos and whether the property is secure. That gives the team the best chance of advising quickly.
